I I . No traffic or equipment shall be allowed on the disposal area except while
installation occurs or while normal maintenance is being performed.
12. Public access to the Iand application sites shall be controlled during active site use.
Such controls must include the posting of signs showing the activities being
conducted at each site.
III. MONITORING AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
Influent flow shall be continuously monitored and daily flow values shall be
reported on Form NDMR.
The Permittee shall install an appropriate flow measurement device consistent with
approved engineering and scientific practices to ensure accuracy and reliability of
influent flow measurement. Flow measurement devices selected skull be capable of
measuring flows with a maximum deviation of less than 10 percent from true flow,
accurately calibrated at a minimum of once per year, and maintained to ensure that
the accuracy of the measurement is consistent with the accepted capacity of that
type of device. Records of flow measurement device calibrations shall be kept on
file by the Permittee for a period of at least three years. At a minimum, data to be
included in this documentation shall be:
a. Date of flow measurement device calibration
b. Name of person performing calibration
c. Percent from true flow
2. Any monitoring (including groundwater, surface water, soil or plant tissue analyses)
deemed necessary by the Division of Water Quality to insure surface and
groundwater protection will be established and an acceptable sampling reporting
schedule shall be followed.
3. Adequate records shall be maintained by the Permittee tracking the amount of
wastewater disposed. These records shall include, but are not necessarily limited to,
the following information:
a. date of irrigation,
b. volume of wastewater irrigated,
c. field irrigated,
d. length of time field is irrigated,
- 4 -

e. continuous weekly, monthly, and year-to-date hydraulic (inches/acre) loadings
for each field,
ff, weather conditions, and
g. maintenarice of cover crops.
4. The effluent from the subject facilities shall be monitored by the Permittee at the
point prior to irrigation every March, July, and November for the following
parameters:
